The Spirit Bear eats the same thing as the Black Bear would. The species primarily feeds on vegetable matter, including roots, and fungi. Fish are a primary source of meat, though they also eat other small mammals, scavenge carrion and insects (mainly for the larvae) such as carpenter ants, yellow jackets, bees, wasps and termites.

The Kermode, or Spirit bear, is a genetic subset of the American black bear. It faces the same dangers as any black bear. Grizzlies have occasionally killed black bears, but the main danger any bear faces is loss of habitat, human encroachment, poaching. The Kermode
is protected from human hunting in British Columbia.
